That's Ok Pat . I for one don't mind at all .One big happy family , no
secrets . We all wish John a speedy recovery and a return to his his
Kolb shenanigans. You do have to watch those spoked things with pedals,
have lost count how many stiches I have had as a result of my lack of
ability to operate one proficiently . no longer even try . The Kolb is
much more forgiving.

Subject: Kolb-List: Apologies
Apologies to John H and the list. It seems that I may have
inadvertently sent what was supposed to be a chatty post to an invalid
(thats you John) was broadcast to the entire list.
Sorry. its just that with every other list I am on pressing
`reply` sends a message only to the individual involved NOT to the list.
I have been caught out on this before. Will try to do better.
Pat

Subject: | Re: Video of playing low level over some fields |
When I watched the 180's back to the runway, I puckered up a bit. When I watched
this one it was more enjoyable but still had some puckering going on.
I realized in my years of flying, the only time I intentionally fly that low is
when I am climbing out or getting ready to land.
I love cruising around the country side of the flat lands of ND at 500' and over
lakes (I am a good swimmer) but 500' has been my floor, and only in a slow moving
light plane.
I just logged my 5,000th hour at 14,000' yesterday afternoon in my multi-engine
spam can flying machine. Logged the next hour last night in my Citabria for
fun, and yep I took it down to 500 AGL over a nice long MN lake, but got spooked
upward by a flock of ducks.
I lecture my son all the time about setting limits when he flies and stick with
them. Recreational GA flying is very very safe, except when in close proximity
to the ground, and close to the ground is for take off and landing. I tell
him he has a license to learn, but to do his learning with a good amount of buffer
above the ground. Only my opinion.
I guess I am getting old tend to be more rigid with age (not just my joints).
But I still learn something new about flying every time I launch.
Still enjoy the list even though my FSII has been gone now for over a year.
Fly Safe Kolb Buddies,
Jim

Subject: | I uploaded a poor quality video |
I found my old video camera and re-learned how to use it, sort of. Took some poor
video of my flight this morning from Buffalo Airfield to the Lake Erie shoreline
just south of Buffalo, NY. The link follows:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DVn_rm0KYls
It got up to mid 80's this morning which explains the unusual haze for this time
of year around here.
I made some other videos of the shoreline heading south which I'll post later.
I plan to rig a lift strut mount before making any more. The results should be
better without the canopy reflections and the pilot's wobbly hand. I think I can
switch the camera to a little higher fidelity too, but not sure how yet. Videography
is not my strong suit, as you can tell.

- Thom- Very nice.- The advantage of the type you made is that the view
er gets to see what the pilot sees, including reflections.- One suggestio
n- a view of the instrument panel now and then, so that we can see speed, a
ltitude, etc.- Keep them coming.

Doesn't look like wind power is going to run many air conditioners.
